Luminish
Lamp Design Contest. True story.

Motto:
“Just remember, the night has come, turn on the light, the light
inside and start reading yourself with the lamp alight!”

BRIEF

Lightening
forms made from manual paper, for the interior, used during the
night-time. They will be in their ideal use while kept alight during
one’s reading.

Alternative
solutions, other than bending, cutting and pasting are encouraged and
favoured.

The
thought you have to keep in mind, when you start rendering this
design in your head is:“Just
remember, the night has come, turn on the light, the light inside and
start reading yourself with the lamp alight!”.

Innovation
is key in this context, the innovation applied to manual moulding
paper, in order to make them a sustainable product. This innovative
design has to be provided with ingenious technical solutions, in
order to be reproduced in a limited series.This
is NOT a contest for generating ideas, yet it is proposing a
resourceful and clever solution for the full extent of designing and
producing lamps made out of paper.

We
will asses your work pursuing the following criteria:

Innovation
– Adapting
the manual paper properties to the construction of the object.

Technical
solutions – The efficient use of the materials. Solutions for
natural fireproofing of paper. Proposing a proper bulb and socket
according to the needs of the paper heating conditions and light
colour variation. (Neutral light is preferred).

The
use of other materials (other than paper) have to be minimal and they
have to be in accordance with the paper.

Aesthetics
– An appropriate thinking of the proportions according to nature’s
laws.

Proper
Framing – The adaptation for form, function and proportion to the
environment.

Concept
– Has to be according to the innovation and aesthetics points and
inspired by a natural source that manifests a biological rhythm (day
/ night, ascent / descent, static / movement).

Every
participant needs to be over 18 years old. But if you fall outside of
the age range please don’t feel excluded and contact us at contest@luminish.com. Age has nothing to do with your experience
or/and with your portfolio. If you are under 18 you must have a
signed permit from one of your parents or guardians.

Every
participant needs to be enrolled in a design school from Norway or Romania.

We
do not perceive any fees in order for the students to participate in
our design contest.
